Cylc scan and cylc kill

Hi Luciana,

The cylc kill command kills selected task jobs in a running suite, it doesn’t kill the scheduler program itself.

To get a suite to shut down cleanly, use cylc shutdown <suite> or cylc stop <suite>.

That should work fine. In rare occasions where a suite becomes unresponsive, as a last resort you can kill the Linux process as shown by @Rosalyn_Hatcher. (Note you can still do a restart, from wherever the workflow got to, even after a hard kill).

(See cylc kill --help etc.)

Regards,
Hilary
